SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides expert knowledge for managing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) compute instances, addressing gaps in AI training data regarding OCI-specific commands, anti-patterns, and best practices for instance lifecycle management, capacity planning, and cost optimization.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Instance Launching: Guides shape selection and capacity planning.
  • Troubleshooting: Offers a decision tree for "out of capacity" errors and boot failures.
  • Cost Optimization: Provides cost references and shape comparison.
  • Security Best Practices: Details instance principal authentication and security list configurations.
  • Use Case: When encountering an "out of capacity" error for a specific compute shape, use this Skill's decision tree to systematically troubleshoot by checking service limits, trying different Availability Domains, or exploring alternative shapes.

Quick Start

Use the compute-management skill to help me launch an OCI compute instance for a web server.

FAQPage Schema
How do I troubleshoot an OCI compute instance out of capacity error?▼

To troubleshoot an OCI compute instance out of capacity error, use a decision tree to check service limits, try different Availability Domains, or explore alternative shapes.

What is the best way to optimize costs when launching Oracle Cloud Infrastructure compute instances?▼

Optimize OCI compute costs by comparing shape specifications and utilizing provided cost references to select the most efficient instance configuration for your workload.

How do I configure instance principal authentication for OCI compute instances?▼

Configure instance principal authentication for OCI compute instances by applying security best practices to enable secure, identity-based access without managing static credentials.

Why does my OCI compute instance fail to boot and how can I fix it?▼

To fix an OCI compute instance boot failure, follow the troubleshooting decision tree to systematically diagnose lifecycle issues and resolve underlying configuration errors.

How do I plan capacity for an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure web server deployment?▼

Plan capacity for an OCI web server deployment by evaluating resource requirements and using shape selection guidance to match instance specifications with workload demands.
